Multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency
MONDO:0009282A disorder of fatty acid and amino acid oxidation, caused by mutations in ETFDH, ETFA, or ETFB, and is a clinically heterogeneous disorder ranging from a severe neonatal presentation with metabolic acidosis, cardiomyopathy and liver disease, to a mild childhood/adult disease with episodic metabolic decompensation, muscle weakness, and respiratory failure.
Also known as: Glutaric Aciduria Type II, MAD deficiency, MADD, electron transfer flavoprotein deficiency, glutaric acidemia type 2, glutaric acidemia type II, glutaric aciduria type 2, glutaric aciduria, type 2

Could a short course of steroids calm a dangerous heart rhythm?
Disease control ENROLLING_BY_INVITATIONThis trial tests whether an 8-week course of the immunosuppressive drug prednisone can reduce episodes of ventricular tachycardia (a potentially fatal fast heart rhythm) and improve heart function in people with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and confirmed heart inflammation. Partic…
